    Guitar Brightness – Raw Tone vs Album Tone

    Just to clarify: I only play through my studio monitors, and always have the volume at the same level for playing, recording and listening to music. Am I right in saying that this largely eliminates the Fletcher Munson issue? Also, I'm becoming more and more convinced that most elements of a...

    Guitar Brightness – Raw Tone vs Album Tone

    Thanks for the advice guys. Just to clarify a few things: yes I'm using fresh guitar strings and am using a high pass filter after double tracking and panning the tracks hard left/ right. I have no problem getting 'fizz' into the guitar sound - it's just that super bright yet clear distorted...

    Guitar Brightness – Raw Tone vs Album Tone

    Hi all, I’ve been doing a lot of recording lately and have been experimenting with different guitar tones through my Axe Fx. I’m then referencing the tones against my favourite albums. What I’m noticing is that for the most part the amps on the Axe Fx sound a bit dull compared to the album...

    Anyone Other Than Me???

    It's totally wrong, but you're forgiven because those John Mayer links are fucking hilarious.

    Mark 1, 2, XL or XL+

    Calling the XL+ 'the latest and greatest' in comparison to the XL is a bit of a misnomer. They have the same features and the same sound, but the XL+ has a different LCD controller chip due to the other controller chip being EOL. More info here...

    Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 1.00 Public Beta

    The USB cable used shouldn't make any difference, unless the cable is faulty. Pretty sure the operating system shouldn't make a difference either.

    Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 1.00 Public Beta

    I always record output 1 and dry 3 for the same reason. Lucky I did! EDIT: I see that you record output 2 also - is there any advantage to doing this? I always just record 1 and 3, as I double track the guitars and then pan them hard left and right anyway (I only need to record in mono). Am I...

    Axe-Fx II "Quantum" Rev 1.00 Public Beta

    I started recording an album with firmware 19 just a few days ago. My timing sucks! If this firmware sounds as good as everyone says I might have to install the update an then re-amp what I've done so far.. :torn:

    Axe fx II XL+ quieter than Axe fx II XL?

    Fair enough! Thanks for the reply. The only bummer is that the XL+ was announced only 2 and a half months after I bought my XL. Doesn't affect my usage of the unit whatsoever, but just a bit of a downer that my resale value probably decreased at that point. Not your fault at all, by the way...
